The characteristic that does not develop during the teen years is development of ovaries in girls and testes in boys.

The ovaries and testes develop during the fetal stage and are functional by birth, whereas secondary sex characteristics such as body hair, acne, and breast development occur during puberty, which typically begins in the teenage years.
